Imagine going hungry, right here, in the wealthiest country in the world. It hardly seems possible but it's true. The reasons are many. Job losses. Stagnant or declining wages. Escalating costs and high medical expenses. The fact is, 49 million Americans are at risk of hunger*. That's one in six Americans, and many of them are children and the elderly.

Here's another fact that might shock you, 20% of all food produced in the United States goes to waste.

And that's where Feeding South Florida comes in.
